The Zorse is a hybrid animal. The zorse is produced when a male zebra mating with a horse mare. The result of this crossbreeding is a horse-like animal with zebra-like stripes.
The breeding of these two species happens in the 19th century when it was first recorded by naturalist Charles Darwin. The size of the zorse depends on the breed of zebra using in breeding.

- Zorses have incredible ability of sense of smell and have hearing abilities as well.
- A zorse cannot reproduce. This means they are completely sterile. but they show breeding behavior.
- A newborn Zorse can stand within one hour and Within a few hours, it can start running.
